Our Story
In 2000, Peer Stritzinger founded the company in Bavaria to solve tough firmware challenges for an automotive client. Over the next decade of embedded consultancy, we built deep expertise and delivered reliable firmware solutions. Our first in-house product was GRiSP, a unified hardware and software system that began life as a bare-metal board booting directly into Erlang. From that single board we grew a full ecosystem of modular hardware, ready-to-run BEAM runtimes, integrated cloud tooling, and built-in IoT security to deliver dependable embedded systems in the real world.
In 2013 we demoed GRiSP at the Erlang User Conference; by 2017 the first production boards had shipped. Kickstarter backers helped fund GRiSP 2 in 2019, and in 20024 we launched GRiSP-io, our cloud-edge platform for managing device fleets. Today our 14-person team divides its time between new hardware (GRiSP Nano), research and test environments, and custom client solutions across transport and automation, many of which feed directly into our evolving GRiSP-io roadmap.
What We Do
Tools for Embedded Systems, Cloud Connectivity, and Security
Erlang-on-bare-metal hardware for prototypes, teaching labs and production lines.
Ready-to-use BEAM runtimes (bare-metal & Linux) that run on GRiSP boards or third-party hardware.
Cloud-to-edge service for monitoring, updating and orchestrating device fleets.
Audits, hardening and documentation aligned with EU rules such as the Cyber Resilience Act.
How We Work
Dependability first
Designs aim for long operating life and predictable upkeep.
Open where possible
Specs, source and docs are public when licenses allow.
Security by design
We begin each engagement by mapping potential threats and requirements.
Community focus
We maintain open-source libraries and speak at conferences.
